The End of the Internet ?

Tuesday 27 November 2007 @ 9:31 am

The Consortium of Internet Service Providers recently conducted a research on the use of the internet in the United States and decided that we have reached the end of the Internet? What the fish you think?! The Armageddon of the WEB as they see is s because mainly the huge infrastructure in the United States are unable to cope with the rising demand of the Internet, citing slow downloads for YouTube Videos, Applications, Web Pages and even due to the priority given to Voice Over Internet Protocol ( VOIP ) calls made all thru the internet.

However, being in the US, I find that the users will NOT switch back to Narrowband 56Kbps dialup which is mainly free in the US, but rather the take up rate will increase. The standard Broadband in the US, is sadly said to be anything just over 128Kbps which is a dual channel ISDN equivalent. Imagine being called on the internet super highway with just 128 Kilo Bits Per Second??

Watch the latest videos on YouTube.com

WHAT?? Even with GPRS or Global / General Packet Radio Service and HSDPA on the Blackberry or 3G Mobile Phone on the GSM or CDMA / TDMA Networks are far speedier than these kind of broadband. What speeds can the cell phone in your pocket go up to? As low as 384Kbps on generic WAP up to 3.8Mbps on HSDPA 3.5G Hybrid phones.

Imagine the thought of being stuck with dialup..is something I can imagine ..NOT. Call me a high school kid whatever, but I will never be stuck with dialup or modems unless it’s for faxing a document of somewhat. Thing is, the majority of the United States are CABLED. If Singapore can operate the DOCSIS 2.0 technology over the existing cable TV System to boast a 108Mbps broadband SUSTAINED without any bottleneck on a one-to-one basis is a real smack on their face, when the majority of the US is sidetracked with a mere 1.5 mbps shared speed. Even with ancient dinosaur Britain is still chugging at 5mbps on their NTL-Telewest ( Virgin Media ) Baseband Cable TV and superseded and overtaken by the incumbent BT Copper ADSL at 32Mbps!

So, I will see with the expansion of Cingular / T-Mobile / AT&T 3G systems alongside with the Verizon and the TDMA /CDMA system cross connectivity in the US be a boost, as the backbones grow faster, over speeds of Terabytes per Second, instead of the current STM3 peering.

What do you think? Will it be the End of the Internet for the US? Or for other countries?

Innit a Digg? Innit Right Guv?

Tuesday 27 November 2007 @ 2:16 am

Tim oh Tim… can’t you use something else that came out of Sasha Baron’s ALI G? Even the term INNIT trigger my word spell check a real red flag!

Definition: INNIT: Coxney (Cocky) Slum / Ghetto East London Accent for ” Is it not ”
Origin of Definition : Poorly Educated Irish Gypsy Travellers living in East Ham and Whitechapel area started to speak this term to the local asian community who improvised to INNIT?

Anyway..enuff being a cox. Where is the API so I can add a INNIT button directly??

Don’t you have link spam?

Monday 26 November 2007 @ 5:51 pm

Well, I am for one, hate link spam. I hate people leeching my feeds and posting them as if it’s their’s on their webpage or blog itself. It’s the cause of why I had alot of page rank sucked dry of the ratings. Forget Real Ranks by IZEAS. You need to know the exact dermographics before you know you have been scammed. Like I said, I am happy just to be able to pay my hosting and my SSL Certificates and domains on time.

And in review of the terms and conditions of use, Adbrite pointed out to me last week that you can’t talk about pay per click or even mention about the rouge techniques of Black Hat. What gives I say? It’s a blog for goodness sake and for the same reason I’ve been assisting alot of bloggers gain better ratings. Just look at the Alexa Ranks. Look at Page Ranks, Look at all the other aspects, not just by the US or European Dermographics. It’s a population of almost 5 billion human beings in this planet, ONE BILLION ITSELF in CHINA. That’s 20% of the Majority.

And to say that the bulk of the Link spam is NOT from them. It’s from the US ITSELF, and the servers, located in the State of Texas, or shall I say the Texas Republic. Don’t the ISP have some sort of control over this??

What Gives?

Stop Nominating Me

Sunday 25 November 2007 @ 4:34 am

To my readers who now hate PeacePukkaPies (I’m NOT allowed to mention PPP I full) for draining your fun honey money…, I have a small request to you guys….

STOP NOMINATING ME.

Yes, as Slamboard mentions, bad publicity is not good at all. I’m a VERY BAD BLOGGER. My Ethics is really SENILE and STINKS. And bad enough the Advertisers slam dunked me during the Advertiser Convention in UK last October during a special meet-up, they feel it’s NOT OK to be associated with BAD KARMA, even though this joker brings in great huge sales (of over £480 EPC [Earnings Per 100 Clicks] in revenue).

Even when the British and European advertisers take it in a laughing stride.. the American Counterparts are not taking this joke anything but a joke. Everything is serious. Money and Ethics. Well, I must say this has gone FAR ENOUGH.

I have been SACKED and DISASSOCIATED with Pay Per Post and it’s Consortium Group of Companies since JUNE 2007. I take it in great stride to allow you folks to vote me as the worst blogger of all time. I have been given the NON-US EARTH’S WORST BLOGGER badge last month. Yeah..talk about bad publicity that I MIGHT land myself in Big Brother the TV Show for my Foul Mouthed and nasty antics…with the Internet Access for my use as one of the requirements of me being in there.

I took in a laughing joke for 2007,but for 2008? Nope. I don’t see the reason WHY should NON-PPP Blogger be nominated at all. PEREZ HILTON *(Whom I found out was a HUNGARIAN Origin) would sure loved the negative publicity for he lives on traffic. Boy George whom hate to be called George O Dowd, wouldn’t mind that much if he did BLOG, because he’s just sick of being just a DJ doing some gigs at either some down rated London Pub or in a Departmental Store (which I am not allowed to say due to the restraining order) because he needs more of the Money.

Say George… didn’t you confess the other time in the police cells that you actually wanna have sex with a woman instead, and the reason they placed you in the womens’ HMP instead??Oooh..never mind that, ND and the oversized lesbo twins will kill me for saying that anyway and chuck me back into Belmarsh.

So back to me not side tracking… I don’t like to win a negative award or be nominated or be a runner up.. if there was NOTHING FOR ME TO WIN. I would want at least $10,000 for being 3rd place, $30,000 for second and $100,000 for being the Worst.

Come on, MindComet has tons of money to spend anyway, and if they can afford to buy a few Manhattan Apartments in downtown, they can surely afford it. Don’t believe it? Check out their DUNS Annual Report. They made tons last year.

So, ASHLEY@IZEA.COM … you ought to be ashamed to just give the winners a lousy T-Shirt and a cheapo award which is not even made out of gold. How Cheapskate can that be ..when you make 25% of what we earned?! And I know how much had been paid out..thanks to PAYPAL.

In Sooth…. I know not why you so… suakoo.

Coin Coin Coin

Saturday 24 November 2007 @ 5:06 am

More Coin. That is all the sound Tia Baby wants to hear.. when she run thru my side pockets of the jeans. The clinging and clanging of the coins make even adults happy, when they are in the casino I mean.

But having said that, I must say I have a stash of not so collection of coins and a few of them i classify as “rare coin“, by me. Not by some appraiser, but I did so once before and of which was a recalled 3/4 Cent (three quarter of a Cent) of the Queen Victoria head for the Straits Settlements which was recalled. However, Early 17th century Gold Coinage is always sought after by investors and collectors alike. With prices hitting over $10Million, these rare coins are beyond the reach of the avid collector.

Just like the Three-Quarter Cent of the Straits Settlements. It may as well be a fake , fluke or act of withdrawal as the coin is full of mistakes. One explicit example is the word :cen without the T, thus sense of withdrawal. Also, that the coinage had crisp features, as if it had not been in circulation.

I did a carbon dating test on it before, and it was revealed to be within the era of the year it was coined. Either it was a fluke,fake or otherwise, it is more or less of a curio nowadays, and it fetch high prices because of this issue. It was the same as the One Thousand Pound Note which was withdrawn by the Bank of England with only less than 8 in the world.

Just like the Penny Black inverted. Or the Recalled One Thousand Ringgit banknote. (Which is open for offers over $3,000)

So, watch out the next time you count your coin. It may be worth more than the face value.

Happy Birthday Tia

Friday 23 November 2007 @ 6:12 pm

Well, that notty little cheeky darling of mine is now Three.. so she can NEVER BE CALLED A BABY anymore. but the fact that she is more of a pain in the back…is a 21 year thought haunting me..
And, make things worse, I am having the flu.

So, no party for her. But I’ll make it up for it. Hopefully I get better to treat her to a weekend of fun and games…somewhere.

She is officially now.. a Toddler.

Happy Birthday Tia (well, she better make up her mind, cos I ain’t yr mama..whom you changed yr mind on getting born on the 19th!)

Don’t drop it

Wednesday 21 November 2007 @ 12:36 pm

Lets put it blindly, you are annoyed with the Pagerank drop..which brings you to a big fat ZERO, I feel you. I know alot of you are reliant on funds from Paid Blogging, be it IZEAS PayPerPost or Blogitive or Blogsvertise or other Paid Review sites. Loosing out to the Big Boys and Gals are …well something that you can’t really imagine. Even huge bloggers like 5xMom had felt that anyone whom used Paid Reviews are …being yanked off with a ZERO RANK.

So what Differ MY PAGE here and my Wifes, which is operated under the same flagship?

CODES. Loads of Codes. Think it will work? Well, IZEAS is supposed to be FULL OF IDEAS on how to make you rich (so OK..THEM RICHER), but it’s supposed to be a profit sharing aspect.One thing you need to have GREAT PAGERANK is NOT TO DISCLOSE YOUR PAID ENTRIES. Alot of the Entries are found to be…well, easy to spot as sponsored. I did state way back early this year, that Google will penalise HEAVILY websites and the targetted hyperlinks. Like I said before, each Hyperlink MUST BE UNIQUE, not just generic like Hotels in Neverland or Payday Loans and what not. It’s the same principle with Keyword Bidding on Pay Per Click programs like Google Adsense , Adbrite or Bidvertiser. It’s the generic linking that really brings down the advertiser and medium’s value drastically.

So, what CAN YOU DO?? It depends on HOW GOOD YOUR SKILLS ARE.
The Pre-requisites:

Knowledge in PHP
Knowledge of SQL
Know how to Tweak HTML
Able to access your files directly thru FTP
Able to get hold of your SQL Database
Able to uplift your SQL Tables.

That is quite hard for the novice. If you are using Blogger, heads up..you are a sitting duck. You will need to install Wordpress with the SEO plugins and what other addons, but activate all of them only AFTER YOU IMPORT THEM.

That is just step one. The rest …is abit more simple.

More in a few moments.
